The Lyrics

adobo is Filipino food prepared in a special way. Kanji is Chinese characters and the song takes place in Chinatown, San Francisco.
As I walk through Chinatown with all my Asian friends
I take a look at the place and see there's not much white men there
'Cause most of them are racist against us that
Even my family thinks all their minds are gone
But I ain't never crossed someone who asked me stupid questions
I am a minority, obviously NO DUH!
I'm very proud of my own ethnic background
So nobody better tell me otherwise
I really hate to say this but I'm going to
Mandarin does not sound funny it sounds unique, FOOLS
I'm the Chinese boy that Chinese children wanna be like
Always eating white rice, totally despising french fries

Been spending most of my life, living in an Asian's Paradise
Every day I eat rice, living in an Asian's Paradise
My Kanji writing is nice, living in an Asian's Paradise
I hang out with Asian guys, living in an Asian's Paradise

Verse 2:
My Filipino friends make adobo for me
While my Japanese friends all compare all the Kanji
many of the characters are the same
Memorizing ten-thousand of them is so insane
I don't speak English so well
But still I wrote this song
To show all the racists that I'm not a dumbass
I always use chopsticks, eat colored shrimp chips
And my favorite foods are chow mein and of course dim sum, FOOL
Stereotyping really hurts my feelings I'm always asked stupid questions
What can I say?
I've been to the Great Wall of China and Tianmen Square
But not the Forbidden City yet

People nowadays, ask me about Feng Shuei?
It is used to bring good energy rays

Been spending most of my life, living in an Asian's Paradise
My family's restaurant is nice, living in an Asian's Paradise
Most of our guests are white, living in an Asian's Paradise
We work damn hard to survive, living in an Asian's Paradise

Writing lots of Kanji, eating lots of noodles
and rice every day, don't forget the tofu
At my family's restaurant, many customers eat there
because it is a big buffet
that is not very costly
It's under ten dollars and you can eat until you're full
Overall being Asian is so cool
You learn very hard languages and have a sense
of culture and eat such delicious food

Been spending most of my life, living in an Asian's Paradise
I am a proud Chinese guy, living in an Asian's Paradise
This is what I call the life, living in an Asian's Paradise
Still my English is not right, living in an Asian's Paradise
